hmm? 'Rape' has auto suggestions.

In general I dont think that consumption of child pornography is much of a crime, the harm has been done by then, and some poor sad git masturbating over a 3 year old isn't going to make it any worse.

Personally I would rather they put significant resources into catching those people who create it, than into changing search engines and blocking dns addresses so that everyone can pretend it doesn't exist.



Demand encourages supply.


Even if nobody's paying?

Given the threat our lawmakers believe piracy poses to content-producers, and that they wish to suppress the production of child porn, perhaps they should actually encourage the piracy of child porn...

(I jest, of course, but the law itself is none too rational here.)


Your demand for censorship encourages supply of censorship, so I guess we should throw you in jail.


yep. demand exists, so does supply.

I am unsure what problem you actually believe is being solved by google?

What google appears to be doing now is attempting to pretend that neither supply nor demand exist at all.

The insanity of that must be fairly obvious?
